Title: St Pauli Post by: Bob's Orange on Tuesday, April 27, 2010, 07:27:35 Interesting article in the Times, especially about renovating the stadium to put more standing space in.

Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: Jean-Francois is God on Tuesday, April 27, 2010, 08:44:58 Pfft, you St Pauli lot make me sick.
Just you wait until Fortuna Dusseldorf join you in the Bundesliga, then you will see a proper stadium and we can give you another proper spanking. FORTUNA! FORTUNA! FORTUNA! Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: Gelbfüßler on Tuesday, April 27, 2010, 10:46:34 The Weltpokalsiegerbesieger almost back in the big time!
Sankt Pauli have had a quality season and I would love to see them get back to the top flight this year after all their troubles since the last time they were up there. A proper breath of fresh air. Millerntor has needed has needed some work for ages. Last time I went (2005?) it was a proper dump, but in a good way. Graffiti all over the place and everything looked as though it was knocked up by some cowboy. Fortuna have had a great season too considering they were in the 3. Liga last season but I doubt they'll make the relegation playoff this season. None of the 3 teams relegated from the 1. Liga last season are going back up! Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: suttonred on Tuesday, April 27, 2010, 12:03:36 I'm looking at doing a couple of european games next season, that's gone to the top of the list, sounds bloody brilliant.

Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: Batch on Tuesday, April 27, 2010, 19:27:10 ST Pauli > any other German team. Fact*.
* shame about their Celtic link though! Don't blame me, it's my German relatives (don't mention the war) fault. They live not 10 minutes walk from the ground. Though Uncle Hienze (RIP) was Hamburg. Sell out. Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Tuesday, April 27, 2010, 21:12:29 Fantastic article. I now have a new second team..I have to go there 8)

Just about every German I've met seems to be a St Pauli fan or employee. I have a cousin (not you though SY, you should be so lucky) who had or has a season ticket at the Millerntor. All have invited me to their vibrant, green city. I'm not a bundesliga glory hunter, I even checked the results ooh, once a year when they dropped back to the regional league. My mate's got the t shirt..... And I'm so rubbish, I still haven't been. Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: Gelbfüßler on Wednesday, April 28, 2010, 08:27:22 ST Pauli > any other German team. Fact. bar Karlsruhe My mate's got the t shirt..... The 'Retter' one? I got that when I lived(ish) in Hamburg. Thought I was some sort of super club-saving hero for buying that. Or do you mean the replica shirt? Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: Christy on Wednesday, April 28, 2010, 21:47:47 The Retter one. Was that also the one they did where the more t shirts they sold, the cheaper local beer became in the city? Or something.
What a club. Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: Batch on Sunday, May 2, 2010, 18:59:25 Pauli are back in the Bundesliga. Bring on Hamburg!
Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: Chubbs on Sunday, May 2, 2010, 19:33:30 we should form a unofficial twinning with their forum
Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: Bob's Orange on Sunday, May 2, 2010, 19:46:43 Pretty sure they have links with Celtic, for whatever reason
Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Sunday, May 2, 2010, 20:52:41 Pretty sure they have links with Celtic, for whatever reason They do indeed. As far as I can see it's because they're a bit mental..in a good way...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1A2r8vsEnko Apparently you can buy St Pauli merchandise in the Celtic club shop and there is an annual St Pauli-Celtic festival ??? Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: Batch on Sunday, May 2, 2010, 20:58:52 Apparently you can buy St Pauli merchandise in the Celtic club shop And vice versa. Though it was more of a club caravan when I was last over (presumably that was temporary). Thankfully the obvious twining with the Gills didn't materialise.

Another article here. Interestingly after all of the trouble in England these past few days with pitch invasions causing trouble, 9,000 St Pauli fans were able to have a peaceful pitch invasion.

There was loads of pitch invasions over the weekend, the vast majority with no trouble at all.

Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: Costanza on Sunday, January 23, 2011, 15:12:52 Quote Bundesliga side ban strippers at games(AFP) – 3 days ago HAMBURG, Germany — Top German football club St Pauli has shown the red card to strippers performing inside a corporate box owned by one of Hamburg's many lap dance clubs -- but they can dance once matches are over. The Susis Show Bar on Hamburg's main red-light drag, the Reeperbahn, has installed a large mirror and a pole in their box for their strippers to dance for guests invited to watch Bundesliga games. But the club has blown the whistle to the idea guests in the box can watch football while the strippers perform, and say the women can only dance after the 90 minutes of action on the pitch is over. St Pauli bosses acted after fans complained about the image of the club, which has something of a cult following and whose supporters are staunch anti-fascists, being tarnished. "We had a discussion with the owner of the box and made it clear there can not be dances during the matches," St Pauli president Stefan Orth told German daily Bild. "There can be performances after the matches, there can be dances, but they must not end up nude. "If they dance just once naked, they will be out of here!" Prices for a box at St Pauli's 24,850-capacity Millerntor Stadium start at 65,000 euros (87,500 dollars). St Pauli has never been afraid of ground-breaking initiatives and are the first football club in the world to install a kindergarten so children of fans can be looked after at the club while their parents cheer their team. St Pauli are 15th in the Bundesliga after winning promotion last season. http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5jzTVIu5P2rxWcPkr5Are68SqIFJQ?docId=CNG.804ff59b61bc4511257d804f7c890efe.a1 Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: sonicyouth on Sunday, January 23, 2011, 20:51:25 Did you mention the Reeperbahn?

FFS, even my German team looks like being relegated. Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: Bob's Orange on Thursday, April 28, 2011, 15:34:50 I was in Hamburg last weekend (great City).
Watched the second half of the St Pauli v Werder Bremen game in a boozer. St Pauli were pretty woeful. Pizarro had a field day and scored 2 goals. The St Pauli area of Hamburg is pretty cool. Moenchengladbach v Dortmund was interesting as well. A sea of yellow at the game as Dortmund could have won the league. They lost. Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: horlock07 on Wednesday, December 11, 2024, 09:35:35 Holy thread resurrection....
Quite an interesting podcast about what's going on at St Pauli re them being back in the Bundesliga and the ways the club and fans are working together trying to raise money to give them the financial foundations to stay there... https://shows.acast.com/on-the-continent/episodes/otc-special-meet-fc-st-pauli-the-club-changing-football Title: Re: St Pauli Post by: robin_hood on Wednesday, December 11, 2024, 09:51:54 looks very interesting, will have a listen - ta for sharing that.
Some really novel approaches generally from German clubs who are trying to develop other sources of revenue.

Looking at the German leagues, surprised to see Hertha Berlin are only currently mid table second tier. |
